Mega Millions jackpot reaches $875M after nobody wins grand prize
The Mega Millions jackpot now sits at an estimated $875 million after no tickets matched the winning numbers during Friday’s drawing.
The winning numbers drawn Friday night were 13, 25, 50, 51 and 66 with a Mega ball of 6. The Megaplier was 5X.
Nobody won the $792 million grand prize Friday night, but one player in New York matched all five white balls to win the game’s second-tier prize of $1 million.
The next Mega Millions drawing will be held on Tuesday when players hope to win the $875 million grand prize, which carries a cash option of $413.5 million.
Winners typically select the cash prize over the Mega Millions annuity paid out as one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments.
The odds of winning the grand prize are 1 in 302,575,350, according to the game.

That prize is the world’s largest lottery ever won on a single ticket.
The current $875 million jackpot is the sixth-largest prize ever offered by the game.
